DAY 16 OF 21

Have you ever opened old milk? The smell alone is enough to make you gag, right? Bitterness in our hearts is similar. The longer we hold on to it, the more rotten it becomes. When we don’t forgive, we're essentially letting that bitterness grow inside us. Over time, it has a way of affecting everything we do. The good news? We have a choice. We can choose to pour out that bitterness and fill ourselves with something better. Forgiveness isn't about forgetting what happened; it's about choosing not to let it define us or control our actions. It's about breaking the cycle of hurt instead of perpetuating it.

Today, ask yourself: What bitterness am I holding on to that needs to be poured out? Ask God to help you move toward forgiveness in that specific area of your life.
